    I love your stuff - very inspirational (I notice you have not got door/sill protection - how are the doors holding up.

    The lower plastic door trims are a bit of a joke for offroading. I've now lost three different pieces.

    Two were claimed by river crossings as a result of dropping onto rocks. The parts then promtly floated away

    The other broke off dropping down a rock ledge.

    Am keen to get some aluminium flat pieces fabricated to replace them.

    Sliders are my next bit of essential kit to go on the Sport - then we should be sweet

    Can't remember

    Loved the Vids.Looks like you might need to get the spare from underneath and on the rear though.
    Great to see a Rangie that doesn't have road tyres and isn't just used to take kids to school or take a suit to work.
    Looking forward to part3

    Thanks for sharing

    Also good to see some skillful driving in some extreme situations. Love the steady approach, good 'spotting' by your mate and negligible wheel spin. It's amazing what such a slight change of line can achieve.

    Well done and thanks for promoting sensible 4WDing.

    Apols to all and sundry for my tardiness.

    The DVD with the original footage was corrupted and I couldn't import the vision and had to wait until Saturday to get another copy.

    On recent trips we have been shooting on two cameras from different angles and cutting them together to give a better perspective of what is going on with the vehicles as they traverse different lines.

    The water crossing is a great example of that as one view shows the back end floating away while the other shows just how far up the doors the water went

    Will knock a short version together tonight so everyone can go straight to the good stuff and get onto the edits for the whole day sometime next week.

    Cheers
